Green Book, which won highest honors at the Producers Guild Awards Saturday, emerged as frontrunner for Best Picture at the Academy Awards. Other films expected to receive a nod for Hollywood's most coveted award include Spike Lee's BlacKkKlansman, Alfonso Cuaron's Roma, Barry Jenkins' If Beale Street Could Talk and Bradley Cooper's A Star Is Born.

Sony Pictures Animation's Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, which won the Golden Globe in the animated category just weeks ago, is expected to be nominated for Best Animated Film alongside Wes Anderson's Isle of Dogs, Disney-Pixar's Incredibles 2 and Walt Disney Animation Studios' Ralph Breaks the Internet.

The broadcast, backed by Disney-owned ABC, worked to assemble the stars of Marvel Studios' blockbuster Avengers franchise as part of a revolving door of presenters following a controversy that saw tapped host Kevin Hart (Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, The Upside) step down from that role when homophobic tweets Hart made in the past resurfaced on Twitter.

"I have made the choice to step down from hosting this year's Oscars," Hart tweeted earlier this month.

"This is because I do not want to be a distraction on a night that should be celebrated by so many amazing talented artists. I sincerely apologize to the LGBTQ community for my insensitive words from my past."

The 91st Oscars will be televised live on ABC at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT Sunday, February 24. ComicBook.com will provide live coverage of the event.
